Much to my surprise, audio mimicking is way more difficult than visuals.  In the Elvis video, they used The King’s visuals with an impersonator’s voice, which was easy enough to tell.  This guy is good but a voice like Elvis’ comes along only once in a generation.

We could do tricks like get the software to present a younger version of ourselves while doing the voice ourselves.  That might be cool.

Remember when this deep fake tech was just showing up only about 5 years ago.  Check out how far it has come since then.  Skip over Hound Dog if you don’t have three minutes:
